Description
The Delta ASB0312LA-DR00 (also known as ASB0312LADR00) is a compact, high-reliability brushless DC axial cooling fan engineered in a micro 30 x 30 x 10 mm (1.181 x 1.181 x 0.394 in) frame size. Operating on a 12 VDC nominal supply with an input power draw of 0.60 W, it delivers a rated rotational speed of 8000 RPM, producing 3.21 CFM (5.46 m³/h) of airflow against a maximum static pressure of 0.131 in H₂O (32.65 Pa) while maintaining a low acoustic profile of 21.0 dB(A). Built with durable UL 94V-0 flame-retardant plastic housing and impeller, the assembly utilizes a precision sleeve bearing mechanism and integrated locked-rotor impedance protection for sustained duty. Electrical interfacing is handled via three UL 1061 AWG #28 lead wires featuring an integrated open-collector Rotation Detect (RD) lock-signal output for real-time fault monitoring.
Key Features
- Micro Compact Footprint: Standard 30 x 30 x 10 mm square geometry facilitates high-density thermal management in space-constrained embedded enclosures.
- Dedicated Lock Signal: Integrated third-wire open-collector RD sensor provides immediate locked-rotor notification to external monitoring logic circuits.
- Acoustic Optimization: Precision aerodynamic blade design generates 3.21 CFM airflow while limiting operational noise to 21.0 dB(A).
- Robust Protection Suite: Built-in 96-hour locked rotor impedance protection and reverse polarity capability prevent electrical burnout under fault states.
- Industrial Flame Resistance: Housing and impeller are molded from UL 94V-0 rated thermoplastic for superior electrical insulation and fire resistance.
